CLASSIC VALUE COTTON GALLERY CANVAS – 18" × 18" – 1-3/8" DEEP
Vendor: Hull’s Art Supply & Framing
Manufacturer Model: GM-1818
Balanced, bold, and perfect for modern compositions, the 18" × 18" Classic Value Cotton Gallery Canvas 🎨🖼️✨ offers artists a dependable painting surface with a striking square format and gallery-ready presentation.
Featuring a 1-3/8" gallery-depth profile, this canvas provides substantial edges that allow artwork to be displayed beautifully without a frame. The sides are finished using MasterWrap™ back-stapled construction, leaving the edges smooth and paintable with neatly folded corners so artists can extend their composition around the canvas for a clean, contemporary gallery look. 🖌️📐
Each canvas is stretched using precision pneumatic equipment, producing the signature drum-tight tension artists rely on for a responsive painting surface. This balanced tension provides excellent control for everything from delicate layering to bold, expressive brushwork. 🥁🎨
Constructed from 100% cotton canvas, the material begins as 7 oz raw cotton and is triple-primed with archival acrylic titanium gesso, resulting in a 10 oz finished painting surface ready for paint straight from the studio. The medium tooth texture grips paint beautifully while allowing smooth blending and detailed work. ✨
The canvas is stretched over solid wood stretcher bars sourced from sustainable forests, providing strength and long-term durability.
